Automotive Product Policy

At SnapFit Labs, many of our automotive products are manufactured using additive manufacturing (3D printing). While we strive to produce high-quality parts, customers should understand the unique characteristics of 3D printed products before purchasing.

​

Product Appearance

​

Due to the nature of the 3D printing process, minor cosmetic imperfections may occur, including but not limited to:

​

• Visible layer lines

• Minor surface texture variations

• Small blemishes or artifacts

• Slight color variations between production runs

• Support material contact marks

• Minor dimensional tolerances

 

These characteristics are normal and are not considered defects.

 

Raw Printed Parts

​

Products sold as Raw Prints are intended to be used in their as-printed condition or prepared by the customer for finishing.

Raw printed parts may exhibit:

• Visible layer lines

• Surface imperfections

• Print seam marks

• Minor support marks

 

Customers purchasing raw printed parts acknowledge and accept these characteristics as part of the manufacturing process.

​

Raw printed parts are not guaranteed to have a showroom-quality finish.

 

Finished Parts​

​

Products sold as Finished, Painted, Sanded, or otherwise post-processed will undergo additional finishing procedures.

​

While every effort is made to achieve a high-quality appearance, slight imperfections may still be present due to the underlying manufacturing process.

 

Fitment

​

Customers are responsible for verifying compatibility with their specific vehicle before purchase.

​

While SnapFit Labs performs testing whenever possible, vehicle production variations, aftermarket modifications, prior repairs, and manufacturing tolerances may affect fitment.

​

Minor adjustment, trimming, sanding, or modification may be required during installation.

​

Installation Recommendations

​

Certain SnapFit Labs automotive products may include or recommend the use of supplemental mounting methods such as 3M™ double-sided tape, VHB tape, screws, clips, or other fasteners to achieve optimal fitment and long-term performance.

​

Installation recommendations provided by SnapFit Labs are based on our testing and intended use of the product. Failure to follow these recommendations may result in reduced performance, improper fitment, movement, loosening, or product failure.

​

SnapFit Labs is not responsible for issues arising from installation methods that differ from our published recommendations, including the omission of recommended mounting hardware, adhesives, or fasteners.

​

Customers are responsible for ensuring that products are installed correctly and are suitable for their specific vehicle and application.

​

Automotive Use Disclaimer

​

Many SnapFit Labs products are intended for cosmetic, organizational, or convenience purposes.

​

Unless specifically stated otherwise:

• Products are not OEM-certified.

• Products have not been crash-tested.

• Products should not be relied upon for safety-critical applications.

• Customers assume all responsibility for installation and use.

 

By purchasing automotive products from SnapFit Labs, you acknowledge that 3D printed parts may contain minor cosmetic imperfections inherent to the manufacturing process and that such characteristics are not considered defects.

​

Heat, UV, and Environmental Exposure

​

Automotive environments can expose products to:

• Extreme temperatures

• UV radiation

• Moisture

• Chemicals

• Vibration

 

Material selection and performance may vary depending on application and environmental conditions.

​

Customers should evaluate suitability for their intended use.

​

Returns and Warranty

​

Cosmetic characteristics inherent to the 3D printing process, including visible layer lines and minor surface imperfections, are not considered manufacturing defects and are not grounds for return or warranty claims.

​

Products that arrive damaged, significantly defective, or materially different from their description should be reported within seven (7) days of delivery.

​

Continuous Improvement

​

SnapFit Labs reserves the right to improve, modify, or update product designs, materials, manufacturing methods, and specifications without notice.

​

As a result, products may vary slightly from photographs, renderings, prototypes, or previous production runs.
